Examples
In this simple example we add a listener to the notifications.onClosed event to listen for system notifications being closed. When this occurs, we log an appropriate message to the console.
browser.notifications.onClosed.addListener((notificationId) => {
console.log(`Notification ${notificationId} has closed.`);
});
